About me

Would counselling help me ?

Are you experiencing life as stressful, anxious and exhausting, does this lead to sleep and relationship issues and coping means you over eat or restrict your eating. Leading to weight issues and low self esteem.

Maybe unresolved child hood issues or trauma past or present left unprocessed is preventing you from enjoying a better life and reaching your full potential

Being integrative means I have a variety of skills like person centred, CBT, psychodynamic, short term solution focused, somatic body trauma therapy exploring trauma held within the body & unrecognised by the medical profession, mindfulness, relaxation and visualisation techniques to manage stress and anxiety.

Could Relationship Therapy help me

It could enable you to get your relationship back on the right path, or agree to work together towards an amicable break up.

An Initial assessment with the couple will enable exploration of what issues have led the couple to seek therapy, and a confidential contract will enable facilitation to enhance, develop manage and resolve communication issues & enable the couple to move forward with better communication skills to create harmony in their relationship.
